reset Subcommand

After firmware for a device has been updated using the manual
firmware update process, the device might need to be reset. This requirement
is different with each device; therefore, the reset functionality
might be part of the update procedure or a separate function. To determine
if your device requires a reset after a firmware upgrade, consult
the release notes of your firmware.

The reset subcommand supports the following
targets:
